The fact that you chose to censor those opinions makes you no better than ESPN. The fact that you think that it holds some journalistic integrity, makes you a laughingstock. If you go back and read the comments. All of them <B>ALL</B> of them were from your regular readers, not from the kids that like to play in the sandbox here from time to time. <BR/><BR/>If you think that the comments were disrespectful to Will, then by all means say that. If you think they were disrespectful to you, again say that. But to just shut off the flow of communication because you think people are just saying shit to be funny. That's stupid. You don't care about opinions, you're a blogtator. And while I agree that this is not a blogocracy, blogtatorships are not what this "new media" that you are so found of, is about.<BR/><BR/>Grow a pair and admit when you are off base about a subject, even if you believe in it. That will make you a true writer, not hiding behind your wife's skirt everytime people disagree with you.<BR/><BR/>I say good day to you.<BR/><BR/>&hearts; Bluebluehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01547964589052140083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-34213589364603797612007-10-23T14:32:00.000-04:002007-10-23T14:32:00.000-04:00PV845- Beckett pitched game #5 on Thursday Night, ...PV845- Beckett pitched game #5 on Thursday Night, he will have had 4 days of rest (Sat,SUn, MOn and Tues) before starting on wednesday which would be normal rest.<BR/><BR/>As for Wakefield and Coors Field I think that is the reasoning behind starting him at fenway and it also allows the Sox to get Schilling and Dice-K a couple of extra days rest.CMFosthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05291296862033162143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-2178954220393893202007-10-23T14:31:00.000-04:002007-10-23T14:31:00.000-04:00"You censored your own readers." This is a common ..."You censored your own readers." This is a common refrain from you, I think. I think you need to lighten up, Francis. I'm not the government. "Censoring" seems like a bit of a stretch in this context, I'm sorry. <BR/><BR/>All the commenters on the blog enter into a social compact where they put up with my inane shallow ramblings and I love to provide a forum for their far more interesting and enlightened comments on those ramblings, even when I don't agree with them.<BR/><BR/>But all the commenters also know that, when I can, I don't put up with tactics intended only to vandalize the experience for them.
